Amazon Prime Day 2022 is officially here, running today and tomorrow, July 12-13. It’s likely to offer the best deals you’ll find outside of Black Friday, but in order to take advantage of that–and the sale will be extensive, far outpacing the size of competitors–you’ll need to be an Amazon Prime member. Earlier this year, Amazon raised the price of an annual Prime membership to $139, while a single month will run you $15 (which would work out to $180 for the year). Fortunately, if you’re interested in a Prime Day 2022 deal but don’t want that membership fee to offset the savings from those discounted prices, you have some options to get an Amazon Prime membership for free (or at least at a drastically discounted price).

Below, we’ve outlined how you can get Amazon Prime for free. For more on the big sale, check out our Amazon Prime Day hub. And if you’re looking for specific deals, take a peek at our roundups of the best early Prime Day deals:
